Hello!
02. Feb 2008 at 21:36
 
Hi everyone, hopefully soon to be the proud owner of a 1998 R Omega 2.5 V6 Manual in Champagne/silver. 134k, documented history up to 80 with a cambelt at 72. Altho i think its had one since, need to rummage through all the paperwork. One silght question, it runs like a dream, however, when its started, there's a slight hissing coming from the back of the engine, this dies away after a few mins. Still, its gotta be better then the alfa that ive currently got!

Hi Martyn and welcome to THE Omega forum  Thumbs Up!

Check your paperwork for another cambelt change as you are well overdue if the last was 72k (40k or 4 years)

SmileyWelcome aboard Martyn. If you're not sure about the cambelt do the full kit, no messing.That'll give you 4yrs/40.,000 miles. If you leave it & it lets go on you then it's "Game over" Most if not all of us have worn the cost but it's worth it mate.
     Happy Migging! Thumbs Up!
